Manning Subscription Price (Strictly cash in advance) . lyear b months -Jr 8 months -- Entered at the post office at Williamston, N. C., as second-class matter under the act of March 3, 1879 Address all communications to The Enterprise A GREAT PAPER'S FORTY YEARS OF USEFULNESS Forty years of honest service can truthiully be said of the "Progressive i armer," now the greatest farm paper in the world. The last issue closed tne fortieth year of the publication of that paper. It was founded forty-one years ago by L. L. Polk, a man of vision, who ' lived for his fellow man, not only in the years of his life but by building a foundation upon which the agricul tural interests of this country might safely stand. Colonel Polk was Com missioner of Agriculture for North Carolina from 1877 to 1886, which brought him in touch with the work ing folks of the State and inspired him to lift the platform on which they, stood to a higherlevel, where more op- J port unities awaited them. He was a real servant of the peo ple from 1860—when he was elected to the legislature of North Carolina from Anson County—until he died in Washington, D. C., in 1889, serving as a legislator, a soldier, a builder of the R State constitution, commissioner of agriculture, and an active organiser of farmers. But none of his works have reached and helped so many poo pie as the establishing of the Pro grossive Farmer, which has sweetened the lives of so many people whS otherwise would not have known how. The Progressive Farmer has taught every phase of better farming and better living conditions among farm ing people. It has taught the hotter methods —how to apply the poorest grain of sand to the richest swamp muck. It has taught us how to keep healthy. It has taught education as being the safety valve to success. The paper now goes into nearly a half' million homes. Good fortune came to the Progres sive Fanner in its present manage ment, when Clarence Poe, in January, 1899—then only a boy—finished pick ing cotton on his father's farm in Chatham County and went to Raleigh ' and grasped the editorial helm. Like Colonel Polk, Editor Poe's greatest desire has been to help the people, and he has succeeded well. It is under his leadership that the Polk dreams came true. And we are sure that the flowers are only beginning to bloom in its great field ef usefulness. COULD NOT THE POST TFFICE BE THE NATIONAL 'MILK MAN? The important thing in America is the baby of today, destined to be the president, the postmaster, the mi11i0n ...... aire, mechanic, and farm of the com ing generation. Tbe important thing for the baby sad therefore for America's future is milk. Postmaster General New knowi that the fanner gets at most four oi V five cents a quart for his milk. And the mother who needs milk for hei children pays from IK to SO cents. 1b ether words, tbe farmer—if he does wil after raising the calf weaning it, teaching it to drink out ol s pall, gutting ap before dawn 86f timis • year, ciesalng oat the stable raising ths feed and doing all ths rest a# it, fats t to I cento a quart foi aatllk AmJ anm^kAifir prowicißf »d 6 mil* Ano Boin™x)uy ''• V , . 11 usually an "intelligent combine," gets| from 12 to 20 per quart for delivering the milk. 1 Mr. Postmaster, why can't you be ' the milkman and deliver the milk'.' r You deliver eggs now and handle mil ' lions of them with minimum break ' a go, as poultrymen will testify. ' OVER 10,000 FARMERS* •ORGAM ' ZATIONS IN THE U. S. : The United States department of ■ Agriculture announced recently that t there were 10,80;$ farmers' business 1 organizations in the United States at i the end of 1926, handling nearly every > product grown under the sun. The progressive States of Minnesota 1 lowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, lead in the ' number of such organizations. The gross amount of business done ' by these associations reach into sev eral billions, and saved the producers I many millions. Everything points to a rapid 1 growth of cooperative associations of i nearly every kind. The tobacco asso ! ciations are having the hardest pull of any because of the greatness of the project and the highly centralised and organized condition of the buyers and manufacturers of tobacco, who are controlled by so few people ~ . | - _ > OPPOSED TO MODIFICATION OF THE VOLSTEAD ACT ■ i - Rev. Dr. James Empringham was ' mistaken when he rushed to Wash ington with the statement that the Episcopal Church stood for a modifi ' cation of the Volstead act, according 1 to the New York Times, which gath ' cred the information from twenty -1 three bishops of the Episcopal church —five favoring modification and eigh -1 teen opposing It Bishop Manning, of New York, said that Empringham did not speak for ' the Episcopal church of either the na ' tion or the Diocese of New York, and " that he hoped the prohibition amend -1 ment would never be repealed. I Taking the numerous replies re ceived by the Times as a true basis 8 the wet Congressmen were a little e premature in getting the Empringham * statement printed is tne Congression- II al Record. , NOTICE OF LAND SALE Under and by virtue of the author ity vested in me by a certain deed of trust executed by J.

My dear sir:—l used one set of your Torrid Tobacco Stoves through the whole of the past season, and I am thoroughly satis fied with their work. My bam is 16 by 20 feet, and 1 could get all the heat 1 wanted, and it was distributed perfectly. I had lots of trouble in curing out this year with my wood barn, but none what ever with oil. I had regular heats at all times, and 1 positively did not have to sit up at night. You can cure u 16-foot barn with from 66 to 86 gallons of oil. They will certainly do everything you claim for them, and there it, absolutely no danger of fire. 1 consider them much cheaper than wood. Yours very truly, J. W. MURPHY.
